I didn’t have time to feel insulted at Min’s comments. She placed the cape on me and began brushing my hair, smoothing it with her free hand. It r...minded me of childhood, when my sister had brushed my hair. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the sensation of the gentle tug Min was giving me as she brushed. When I opened my eyes, I saw that Alice had left a beverage for me. Min was tender and quick. As she was finishing, she tipped my head forward. She placed a warm cloth against the back of my neck.. Those things were both good andbad. You got me thinking about how I'd react to adverse situations,like up on the Plane, with the battle of that ungodly creature Aukos...Even though Evan was the leader, he wasn't a very good leader. He leftmany wounded comrades up there to die, and I saved as many as I couldbefore the final charge to kill the demon menace. You, however, yousaved those you could and then, by my side, slew the demon. I saw it.You made the final shot, even though Evan said he was. I did not think about it at the time, but she was probably the only woman he ever met he did not try to boink. Then, maybe he did. I thought the third house was Aspen since Uncle Bert bought it after he bought the two ranch houses. I spent four days tearing the place apart. Nothing. Then, I went back and checked the legal records in the court house. One of the ranch houses was bought in Mary’s name. The third house had to be Vail.His Vail house (my Vail house now) was a freestanding residence. I informed her that I would never have been walking to the police station if someone had not reported to the police that Johnny Trevor has been making obscene calls in Coral Pines, Florida! Not to mention, when I inquire about it, I am told, ‘nothing is going on’! She just waved it off. A lot happened in our lives over the next couple of months, including a foreclosure and moving to a new place. But then Daria said she got yet another call from the police. Again, following up on me! She said.
